Playing like Yankees |
Tonight the Yanks played like you'd expect them to play - they manhandled a clearly inferior team. If this was the Yankees of only two weeks ago, their bats would have struggled against sub-par pitching and their pitchers would have been knocked around. But CC Sabathia cruised through 7 innings to his fourth win and the offense exploded in the 7th inning for 7 runs. With their 7th run in a row, they moved to 5 games over .500. Adding to the good news is the return of Brian Bruney from the DL. He threw an inning (15 pitches, 10 strikes, 0 hits, 0 walks, 1 K) and will be a welcome addition to the bullpen.
Finally, for anyone keeping track, since the Carlos Gomez incident on Friday night, Teixeira is 8 for 16, with 6 runs, 11 RBI, 3 hr and 2 BB. Not a bad streak.Labels: Bruney, CC, Teixeira, Winning |

Pitching woes |
| The Yanks followed up Friday night's embarrassing collapse with another disaster last night. AJ Burnett went from virtually unhittable to out-of-control at some point while sitting on the bench during the top of the 4th inning. Burnett had been the one bright spot in the starting rotation before yesterday's game, but now there is not one starter who has been consistently good since the beginning of the season. As if there was not already enough strain on pitching, Brian Bruney was placed on the DL for two weeks. He believes his elbow strain might be due to too much throwing in the bullpen in between appearances. Since Wang is on the DL, he will be replaced by Phil Hughes, who is 3 - 0 with a 1.86 ERA in three starts at Scranton/Wilkes Barre. In 19 1/3 innings, he has struck out 19 and walked only 3. Hopefully, with less pressure on Hughes, he will perform better than last year (0 - 4, 6.62 ERA). Labels: Bruney, Burnett, Hughes, Injuries, Pitching, Wang |

Injury updates: Wang, Ransom, Bruney, A-Rod |
Today, Chien-Ming Wang joined A-Rod and Nady on the DL after being demolished in all three of his starts so far this season and pitching an extended spring training game down in Tampa on Thursday. He has been diagnosed with weakness in the abductor muscles of both hips and is expected to go through 10 - 14 days of physical therapy. When asked what happens after that, Brian Cashman answered the question with another question: Who knows?
A-Rod is still down in Tampa recovering from hip surgery and if the recent text messages he has been sending are worth anything, he is well on his way to recovery. He is still scheduled to return to the major league roster on May 15, and could begin playing live minor league games as soon as a week from now. In the meantime, the Yanks will have to find another replacement for him until he returns. Cody Ransom hurt his right quad last night while attempting to steal second and will be put on the 15-day disabled list.
Finally, Brian Bruney has a questionable right elbow and is having it looked at.Labels: A-Rod, Bruney, Injuries, Ransom, Wang |
